There are not going to be many chances of seeing a bird like this in this part of the country. We left Kyushu and drove to the north-western part of Yamaguchi. I was a little nervous, thinking it would not be there anymore. But yes! At 9am it suddenly soared over the harbor.
From there it went back to the mountain side, where it stayed perched in a tree for nearly 2 hours
Around 11 it came flying again. The sky had become overcast by then, so it seems a little dark
With the crows that seem to be it's steady company
Ohhh, are you coming for me? Am I in the way? Where should I go???
Pff, that was a bit scary. Look at those talons!!!
It decided to grab a utility pole, not my head. Here it stayed perched for a few minutes and then it returned to the mountains again.
Cheeky boy!
I stayed around for the rest of the day, but but apart from a few long distant sightings, that was it. The locals expected it to come in the afternoon for some fish heads that the fishermen would bring, but an Osprey chased it off. A small bird like an Osprey!!!
Osprey vs Eagle, ミサゴ vs オオワシ
